And Another Waffle


Yes my peeps - Yet another waffle post!

Are you getting tired of my waffle obsession yet? As you can tell, I'm not! I'm telling you this waffle maker thing is changing my life! At least you, my readers, are getting things other than just waffles on this blog.

This is my week people - March Break - and I'm taking full advantage of it. Blah, blah, blah. I know... it's sickening really. Who cares if I have a week off - and the weather is fantastic here - and I'm visiting people who I can cook for. Listen, next week I'll be back to my normal deadbeat self and you'll be missing all this attention!!!

Anyway, back to my waffles. This recipe is a second one from my book-club kitchen goddess Ahea. I wanted to make it earlier in the week but didn't have the required sour cream. Now... I do! The last batch of waffles are finished and in our bellies so it's time to refill the coffers AND to try this recipe out!

This looks exciting with the sour cream and the whipped egg whites. It produces a rich but also light waffle. However, it can get a little fiddly with the egg whites (and remember - I'm doin' it by hand folks! No mixer). I would definitely double the recipe so that there were leftovers. In all honesty though it tasted an awful lot like the Buttermilk waffles... but who can resist anything with sour cream? Next recipe to test run... Yeast Waffles. Any good recipes out there, m'peeps!!????



Rich Belgian-Style Waffles
(makes 5 waffles)
1 egg yolk
1 cup sour cream
3/4 cup milk
3 tbsp butter, melted
1 cup unbleached, all-purpose flour
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 egg white, stiffly beaten

Place all ingredients, except egg white in large mixer bowl. Beat on low until moist, increase to medium until smooth (I did all this by hand people and it turned out just fine). Gently fold in the beaten egg whites (do not use a mixer for this - by hand only). Allow the batter to rest for a few minutes, until the waffle maker heats up.
Place about a 1/2 cup of batter on the waffle maker and enjoy!!!
